New Applications

  • The inherent safety and performance properties of Envirotemp® FR3TM fluid have led to its application in electrical equipment other than transformers, including industrial electromagnets, klystron modulators, transformer/rectifier sets, power supplies for luminars, and heat transfer applications for testing equipment.
  • Envirotemp FR3 fluid has excellent lubricity, an important characteristic for application in equipment with movable parts. High voltage oil impregnated paper, cable, and bushing application also appear very promising due to the fluid’s excellent ability to minimize insulating paper degradation and its desirable gassing tendency value of -79 µL/min.
  • The suitability of each application of Envirotemp FR3 fluid is the responsibility of the user. Contact Cooper's Dielectric Fluids Products at 800-643-4335 for application guidelines.
Note:
Occasional headspace exposure to air can occur, such as the operation of pressure relief devices, temporary hand-hole cover removal, etc. without detectable degradation of the fluid properties. However, minimal air exposure is preferred as the fluid is more susceptible to oxidation than petroleum-based products. Applications with continuous free breathing equipment is not recommended.
